THE TORIES WAITING ON TIME.

Hoping to Slave or an Appeal to the
 Country Till Gladstone Is Dead or K4Is
 Powers WeakeRed-A New Scheme
 For Home Rule.
 l LONDON, Aug. 3.-Sir George Trevelyan's I victory continues to be of absorbing interest.
 The London and provincial Conservative papers agree in saying that the election is an 1 ominous fact and that it would be unwise to attempt to ignore or extenuate it's signifi- | canoe. Gladstonian papers are confident general election would result in the return of l home rule majority. The same view is shared by ministerialists, which fact leads to free expression of the opinion that the gov ernment will stick, being sure of compact
 majority during the run of the present Par lament until the end of the natural term five years hence, when MT. Gladstone will be dead or his powers much weakened Crime is on our side, is an argument of the Unionist pa- pers. "There is no reason why the ministers need appeal to the country during the next l five veyears.'
 The Pall Mall Gazette publishes a new home rule scheme purporting to have been accepted by the Liberal leaders. This scheme | gives Ireland national legislature and ex- ecutive. There is to be no separation of | Ulster. Irish members will continus in par- lament The powers of the Irish parlia- l ment shall be delegated, matters to be con 1 trolled in Dublin being clearly defined and | also subject to revision by the imperial par liament. The appointment of judges to re- main in office fifteen years is to be vested in the imperial government and afterward vest ed in the Irish government. The police are to be similarly treated. Customs and excise are to remain under imperial control The pro- portion of the Irish quota to the imperial ex- penditure shall not be more than fifteenth. The land question is left to the Irish parlia- ment. It is doubtful if this statement is of fcial, but it is valuable as indicating the line of the amended policy of Morley, Trevelyan and Hareourt, which is probably assented to by Gladstone.
 After the debate on the report stage of the land bill on Friday there will be gen eraI exodus of members. The majority of the Parnellites arranging to leave next week. Whips fix the propagation for the 25th inst.

Two New York Table Priorea.

Larry Jerome Is not eminent in politics
or finance, has never held notable pub
lie position and his wealth is limited, We.
when he arrived from England yesterday
the whole town began to gossip and today
there are interviews in the papers col
umDs in length. 1t would puzzle an out
slider to account for Larry Jerome's prom
inence. No recent arrival has attracted
so much attention. Beside him the ST
amese princes, the Duke of Marlborough,
Sir Lyon Playfair and all the other nobil-
tiles fa.le out of sight. Larry jerome
dwarfs them all. The explanation is
simple: He's diner out and u mighty
one at that. His presence at a table in
sures the success Of the entertainment
Wherever he goes he is eagerly sought
after on account Of his jollity, wit and
hnMor. I've known John W. Mackay
and Roscoe Conkling 10 wander about the
uptown cafes for hours trying to find Je
rome or Tom Ochiltree SO as to carry them
of 10 dinner.
A more beautiful and touching sight
than these four gentlemen around the fes-
tive board il would be impossible to i'm
agine. I've seen them in the now defunct
Carleton club when even the walters were
impressed by the air Of geniality and good
fellowship that hovered over the table.
Ochiltree was benign. rotund, gloomy.
fiery and joyous; Mackay silent and
bright eyed, smiling with intense amuse-
menl; Conkling dignifed, but quizzical
and bright, and Larry Jerome aminble,
easy. quick rs a flash at repartec, brim-
ming over with infectious fun-in a word,
himself. Ochiltrec's fame is still grow
ing and he owes it all to his social quail
ties. Like Jerome. he is short, stout and

A Curious Old CustOm.

Another curious old custom relates to
births, and the towns Of Hsarlem and
Medemblik alone own with pride its right
In 1873, when the Spaniards took HRar-
lem after its famous siege, they sent no
tice that all houses wherein hay a mother
and new born babe should have their
knockers muffled in white for month
and SO escape sacking. Thenceforth births
in HARLEM are celebrated by what has
low become an ornament on the door,
called ''klopper. Hugo brought forth
their family one to show me-a square of
lace with his coat OF arms finely en-
broidered and edged with fne old Mech
lin. This is lined in white for q girl, half
in pink for a boy. Fastened over wood,
it was hung out by day and carefully gof-
fered again ut night. The Jews-the
plague here of all curiO fanciers-sc -scenting
out every bit Of old silver, lace, china or
carving in cottage or family seat, came
shifting around his 'klopper" with vainly
large offers for the Mechlin when last it
was hung out.-Holland Cor. New York
